The core purpose of the research is to investigate the relationship between the internal attributes of corporate governance and strategic management accounting. 166 companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE) were selected to advance the research objective. Part of the data was collected through financial information published by the companies and the other via questionnaire. Multivariate correlation and regression methods were used to test the research hypotheses. Findings showed that there is a significant relationship between variables such as board independence, number of board meetings and CEO duality with usage of strategic management accounting techniques among the corporations. But no significant relationship was found between board size and the dependent variable.Downloads
